Lassus Sacred Music Discography Lassus Sacred Music Discography Compiled by Jerome F. Weber This discography of the sacred music of Orlandus Lassus (Orlando di Lasso) is for the most part newly compiled, though the first fifteen pages have existed in working files for many years and the newly compiled Magnificats were published separately on this site in January 2019. The list of motets in Grove’s Dictionary 5, 1954 was rearranged into alphabetical order, then corrected from The New Grove Dictionary, 1980. Page numbers from SW are given unless SWnR (H) is indicated. A few titles have been lengthened for clarity. Unrecorded authentic Mass titles are included, but unrecorded Magnificat and motet titles are omitted unless the incipit is similar to another motet. Secular motets are included, and seven hymns not found in the list of motets have also been included. Cross-references have been inserted for clarity. The twelve textless motets (bicinia) of Cantiones duarum vocum (1577) are not included here; all twelve can be heard on Tactus TC 530301 (TC 531202) and Paraty 111.114. Michael Gray’s website classical-discography.org has furnished many details. Olivier Buttex, David Crook, Martin Elste, Pekka Gronow, Daniel Leech- Wilkinson, Rainer Lotz, Jonathan Manton and Karl Schrom have furnished much useful data. Several entries were found in James Erb’s selective discography in Orlando di Lasso: a guide to research (Garland, 1990). The recordings of each work are arranged chronologically, citing conductor, ensemble, date of recording and timing; then the format of the recording (ac, 78, 45, 33, LP, MC, CD, SACD, DVD), the label, the issue number(s) and track or band number. Album titles of mixed collections are added. Each recorded performance is indicated, if known, as: with instruments (w/i), no instruments (n/i), or instrumental only. The first 14 recordings (1925–33), the first three complete Masses and the first five Magnificats have been identified. Recorded works listed under Motets number 320. Additions and corrections may be conveyed to the compiler for inclusion in a revised version of the work. Go to Chantdiscography.com and click on ‘contact us’. A scan of a CD booklet that provides needed data would be invaluable.

  • Guillaume Du Fay Discography
    Guillaume Du Fay Discography Compiled by Jerome F. Weber This discography of Guillaume Du Fay (Dufay) builds on the work published in Fanfare in January and March 1980. There are more than three times as many entries in the updated version. It has been published in recognition of the publication of Guillaume Du Fay, his Life and Works by Alejandro Enrique Planchart (Cambridge, 2018) and the forthcoming two-volume Du Fay’s Legacy in Chant across Five Centuries: Recollecting the Virgin Mary in Music in Northwest Europe by Barbara Haggh-Huglo, as well as the new Opera Omnia edited by Planchart (Santa Barbara, Marisol Press, 2008–14). Works are identified following Planchart’s Opera Omnia for the most part. Listings are alphabetical by title in parts III and IV; complete Masses are chronological and Mass movements are schematic. They are grouped as follows: I. Masses II. Mass Movements and Propers III. Other Sacred Works IV. Songs (Italian, French) Secular works are identified as rondeau (r), ballade (b) and virelai (v). Dubious or unauthentic works are italicised. The recordings of each work are arranged chronologically, citing conductor, ensemble, date of recording if known, and timing if available; then the format of the recording (78, 45, LP, LP quad, MC, CD, SACD), the label, and the issue number(s). Each recorded performance is indicated, if known, as: with instruments, no instruments (n/i), or instrumental only. Album titles of mixed collections are added. ‘Se la face ay pale’ is divided into three groups, and the two transcriptions of the song in the Buxheimer Orgelbuch are arbitrarily designated ‘a’ and ‘b’.

    EARLY MUSIC NOW WITH SARA SCHNEIDER Broadcast Schedule — Summer 2020 PROGRAM #: EMN 20-01 RELEASE: June 22, 2020 Treasures from Wolfenbüttel Starting in the late Renaissance, the court at Wolfenbüttel in northern Germany emerged as a cultural center. The dukes of the house of Welf employed high-profile composers like Michael Praetorius to increase their prestige, but lesser masters like Daniel Selichius made their mark as well. In this edition of Early Music Now, we'll hear from both composers, with performances by the Huelgas Ensemble and Weser-Renaissance Bremen. PROGRAM #: EMN 20-02 RELEASE: June 29, 2020 Those Talented Purcells This week's show focuses on Henry Purcell, and his lesser-known brother (or cousin) Daniel. We'll hear chamber music by both composers, plus selections from the semiopera they worked on together: The Indian Queen, from a 2015 release by The Sixteen. PROGRAM #: EMN 20-03 RELEASE: July 6, 2020 The Lost Voices of Hagia Sophia This week's program showcases an extraordinary recent release from the Portland-based ensemble Cappella Romana. This recording of medieval Byzantine chant composed for Hagia Sophia was recorded entirely in live, virtual acoustics, and soared to #1 on Billboard's Traditional Classical chart! These evocative sounds linger in the soul long after the music fades. PROGRAM #: EMN 20-04 RELEASE: July 13, 2020 Salomone Rossi: Revolutionary Jewish composer Salomone Rossi was a musician who served the Gonzaga court in Mantua. They valued him so highly that he was given a relatively large amount of personal freedom, while other members of the Jewish faith were restricted.

  • Early Music Review EDITIONS of MUSIC Here Are Thirteen Works in the Present Volume
    Early Music Review EDITIONS OF MUSIC here are thirteen works in the present volume. The first two are masses by John Bedingham, while the others are anonymous mass movements (either New from Stainer & Bell T single or somehow related). Previous titles in the series have been reviewed by Clifford Bartlett, and I confess this English Thirteenth-century Polyphony is the first time I have looked at repertory from this period A Facsimile Edition by William J. Summers & Peter M. since I studied Du Fay at university! At that time I also Lefferts sang quite a lot of (slightly later) English music, so I am not Stainer & Bell, 2016. Early English Church Music, 57 completely unfamiliar with it. I was immediately struck 53pp+349 plates. by the rhythmic complexity and delighted to see that the ISMN 979 0 2202 2405 8; ISBN 978 0 85249 940 5 editions preserve the original note values and avoids bar £180 lines - one might expect this to complicate matters with ligatures and coloration to contend with, but actually it is his extraordinarily opulent volume (approx. 12 laid out in such a beautiful way that everything miraculously inches by 17 and weighing more than seven pounds makes perfect sense. Most of the pieces are in two or three T- apologies for the old school measurements!) is a parts (a fourth part – called “Tenor bassus” – is added to marvel to behold. The publisher has had to use glossy paper the Credo of Bedingham’s Mass Dueil angoisseux in only in order to give the best possible colour reproductions of one of the sources).

    Singer Pur _________________________________________________________________________________ The vocal vocation of Singer Pur Mark Lowe This German vocal group gave a very well-received concert last Tuesday evening. A packed audience heard magnificent singing in highly entertaining songs. The admirable hall (which also has superb acoustics) was an added bonus-the beautifully refurbished Rustaveli Theatre. The concert started with magical soft singing in Danny Boy, otherwise known as The Londonderry Air. We then heard a medley of German folk songs and romantic part songs by Brahms and Mendelssohn-all very gemutlich and pleasing to the ear. The group specializes in Renaissance music, so the group included a piece from that period: a little gem by Adrian Willaert, Vecchie Letrose, full of exciting, razor-sharp cross-rhythms. The group also sang an intriguing new work: Time Piece by Paul Patterson. This is a skit on time and clocks, making extended use of modern choral techniques developed by composers like Penderecki and Ligeti (whispering, unusual vowel sounds, and so on). It was a hit with the audience. In the second half, we heard arrangements of popular songs. They included Cheek to Cheek by Irving Berlin, Englishman in New York by Sting, Good Night, My Angel by Billy Joel and Bad, Bad Leroy Brown by the American Jim Croce. For these songs the singers dispensed with their music scores, and sang in old Barber's Shop close harmony style. These songs received especially happy applause - they were obviously loved by the audience, and they were performed with matchless skill. The concert ended with an immaculate performance of a Georgian folk song - le- arned by the group that afternoon.
